Security is essential to make use of application service securely in VANET environments. This paper proposes payment protocol which supports user's anonymity. The proposed protocol is designed to use a charge card as a payment method and performs pre-registration, renewal and payment phase. The user's anonymity and disclosure of charge card information is protected through the pre-registration and renewal phase, and also fast computing operation is supported by minimizing the computational load on vehicles.

The performance of mobile devices and wireless networks is improved rapidly and Mobility management skills such as Mobile IP and ad-hoc technology were developed. So the requirement of processing the distributed computing is highly increased in any place and any time or in the state of movement. Therefore we studied the mobile grid system to process the distributed applications properly in wireless networks. In addition to typical computational resources, Mobile Grid brings new resources such as sensor, mobile devices or other wireless devices to distributed computing for the purpose of resource-sharing. In this paper, we design and implement the mobile grid system in wireless lan network environment for the providing the grid service. Also, we evaluate the performance of mobile grid system using the processing the distributed applications in implemented mobile grid environments.

Vehicle ad hoc networks (VANET) are one of the most important technologies to provide various ITS services. While VANET requires rapid and reliable transmission, packet transmission in VANET is unstable because of high mobility. Many routing protocols have been proposed and assessed to improve the efficiency of VANET. However, topology-based routing protocols generate heavy overhead and long delay, and position-based routing protocols have frequent packet loss due to inaccurate node position. In this paper, we propose a position-based routing repair algorithm to improve the efficiency of VANET. This algorithm is proposed based on the premise that AODV (-PGB) can be used effectively in VANET, if the discovery, maintenance and repair mechanism of AODV is optimized for the features of VANET. The main focus of this algorithm is that the relay node can determine whether its alternative node exits and judge whether the routing path is disconnected. If the relay node is about to swerve from the routing path in a multi-hop network, the node recognizes the possibility of path loss based on a defined critical domain. The node then transmits a handover packet to the next hop node, alternative nodes and previous node. The next node repairs the alternative path before path loss occurs to maintain connectivity and provide seamless service. We simulated protocols using both the ideal traffic model and the realistic traffic model to assess the proposed algorithm. The result shows that the protocols that include the proposed algorithm have fewer path losses, lower overhead, shorter delay and higher data throughput compared with other protocols in VANET.

최근 빠르게 확산되고 있는 소셜 네트워크 서비스(Social Network Service)는 사용자의 인맥을 관리하며 새로운 인맥을 형성하는 것을 목표로 한다. 또한 사용자들이 자신의 관심사에 관한 지식이나 정보를 공개함으로써 정보의 효율성을 높이고 다른 사용자들에게 정보를 전파한다. 하지만 현재의 소셜 네트워크 서비스는 새로운 인맥을 형성하는 것보다 실제 사회에서의 인맥을 가상의 공간에서도 유지하고 관리하여 실제로 만나지 않더라도 관계를 유지할 수 있도록 하는 용도로 사용되어 소셜 네트워크의 목표를 달성하지 못하고 있다. 하지만 특정한 공간의 동일한 관심사를 가진 사람들 간의 제한적 정보 공유는 소셜 네트워의 단점을 보안하고 궁극적 목표를 달성할 수 있다. 또한 특정 관심사를 기반으로 그룹을 생성함으로써 정보의 신뢰도를 높이며 새로운 인맥을 형성에도 효과적 일 것이다. 하지만 이러한 네트워크는 모바일 환경의 특징으로 인해 빠르게 변화할 수 있으며 위치를 기반으로 특정 공간의 다른 사용자들과 통신함으로 완전히 새로운 인맥을 형성하게 된다. 그러므로 안전하게 신뢰관계를 구축하기위해 사용자의 평판 관리가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 소셜 네트워크에서 동일한 관심사를 가진 폐쇄적 정보공유에서의 악의적 노드의 고립을 위한 평판 메커니즘을 제안한다.

Although online social network services widely used in human networking and recruiting industries, it is showing off its limitations in followings-it's hard to reach the status of seamless connection between offline and online; the incompletion and low credibility of the information came from non-face-to-face profile exchange; and the restraint of user autonomy due to centralized control. This paper defines the ubiquitous social network management which enables the seamless real-time face-to-face social interactions of the users based on WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) who share the same interest in real word and deduces a ubiquitous social network management framework based on it. As an instance of ubiquitous social network management, u-Recruiting service model will be designed and analyzed. The Analysis using the business model will be followed by the possible scenario of service model. The role, value proposition and potential benefits of the each participants in this service model and will be given as well. In order to evaluate relative advantages of the model suggested by this study, 6 cases will be compared.

Many systems are developing for the realization of NCW(Network Centric Warfare). UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) Network is attracting attention in a lot of military applications. In general, UAVs have the potential to create an ad-hoc network and greatly reduce the hops from source to destination. However, UAV networks exhibit unique properties such as high mobility, high data rate, and real time service. The routing protocols are required to design the multi-hop routing protocols that can dynamically adapt to the requirements of UAV network. In this paper we analyse Geographic Routing Protocol is based on geographical distance between source and destination for efficient and reliable transmission. Geographic Routing Protocol is evaluated in video service scenarios with TDMA model in our simulation. The simulation results show that the performance of Geographic Routing Protocol is better than the MANET Routing Protocol in terms of packet received ratio, end to end delay, and routing traffic sent.

Recently, multicast routing protocols become increasingly important aspect in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), as they effectively manage group communications. Meanwhile, multimedia and real-time applications are becoming essential need for users of MANET. Thus it is necessary to design efficient and effective Quality of Service (QoS) multicast routing strategies. In this paper, we address the scalability problem of multicast routing protocols to support QoS over MANETs. In particular, we introduce a Position-Based QoS Multicast Routing Protocol (PBQMRP). Basically, the protocol based on dividing the network area into virtual hexagonal cells. Then, the location information is exploited to perform efficient and scalable route discovery. In comparison with other existing QoS multicast routing protocols, PBQMRP incurs less control packets by eliminating network flooding behavior. Through simulation, the efficiency and scalability of PBQMRP are evaluated and compared with the well-known On-Demand Multicast Routing Protocol (ODMRP). Simulation results justify that our protocol has better performance, less control overhead and higher scalability.

This paper proposed a session key exchange and authentication scheme on non-interactive key distribution algorithm using a community member's ID in ubiquitous networks. In ubiquitous network environment, User's context-awareness information is collected and used to provide a context-awareness service for someone who need it. However, in ubiquitous network environment, this kind of the Context-awareness information could be abused by a malicious nodes. The proposed scheme using the community member ID provides a session key exchange and mutual authentication between community members, and supports secure data communication. Also, when exchanging the session key and authenticating each other, this scheme reduces communication overhead and authentication delay compared to the AAA server scheme.

Wireless sensor network plays a prominent role in tracking the location of the target outdoor and indoor. This paper describes the implementation of the passive indoor location tracking system using ultrasonic and RF technologies that provides accurate location in the form of user space and position in three dimensions. Our system used a combination of RF and ultrasonic technologies to provide a location-support service to users and applicants. Ceiling-mounted beacons were spread through the building, publishing location information on an RF signal. The person carried a listener and the listener determined the location by calculating the distance from three beacons using triangulation algorithm.
